Today I have a very special project to share with you. For a while now I’ve been a major fan of Celina Bailey from Petit a Petit & Family; honestly she’s one of the most amazing and creative bloggers in the “sewing community”, and I have to confess she’s my favorite, I just Love her style.
I got super excited when she and some other amazing ladies announced the launch of a new pattern making collective called Willow&Co. And so when I saw Celina’s call for pattern testers I immediately decided to sign up… Never in a million years I thought I would get picked to test it, and if you know me you know that it’s true… But guess what I was… And so with no further delay I give you my version of the Ash Jumpsuit!
I’ve tested the separates version of it, the cutest pair of pants and a lovely top. Seriously this is one of the best patterns I’ve ever worked with. The instructions are very easy to follow and it all comes together perfectly. I just love the cute detail of the ruffle on the waistband. And the neckline is so pretty!!
I already bought another fabric to make the Jumpsuit for Madalena, and I’ll definitely make one for Francisca too. It’s a perfect summer outfit. It just looks great, right?! I also have been thinking that it would give a really cute dress with an elastic waistband… So I guess you’ll be seeing much more of this pattern around here!
I used a lovely voile from Koka that I bought at Retrosaria for the top and some lightweight denim for the pants.
Well I must say that this was one of the most fun experiences I’ve had in a long time. And it definitely was great to work along an amazing group of talented seamstresses and see they’re awesome versions first hand. Not to mention how thrilled I was for Celina to let me test it…
Don’t miss the official launch of this incredible Spring/Summer collection of patterns on April 22nd at Willow&Co. I’m sure I won’t!
Such a gorgeous take! Your daughter is quite the little model as well.
Thank you so much Melissa. My daughter doesn’t like modeling at all, to get some photos it usually takes some candy and a lot of begging!! 🙂
Oh wow! I am speechless. I am just so happy I’ve gotten to know you and I am soooo excited about your new blog. I think I have a new favorite 🙂 Love the name too. You are one amazing and talented lady. I am soooo excited for you! Yay! and thanks you for making my pattern looks so damned cute and awesome. xxx
Oh my Celina, you are too kind! Thank you for being such a creative force, and inspiring me!! I’m so happy I got to test your patterns, and I can’t express how grateful I am that you came here to show your support!!! xxx
Lovely!
Fico muito contente que tenhas avançado com o blog, Inês! Fico a aguardar muitos e bons posts da tua sewing booth, com muita folie! 🙂 Estou a terminar a minha publicação sobre o ASH (ai a edição de imagens…) e vou colocar um link para o teu blog, se não te importares. Parabéns!
Obrigada Sara! O teu comentário e da Celina no grupo do Ash deram-me o empurrão que faltava!! 🙂 Estou muito curiosa por ver o teu post também, especialmente dos testes em que não participei!!

Hi Lucy, thank you so much! Yes a blog is such hard work and I’ve decided to try WordPress instead of blogger (my first blog was on blogger) and I’m still learning everything… When I finish replying to all the nice comments I had, I’m surely going to show you my support too since I just loved your vintage sari version!!!
Ohhhhhh I LOVE it. Perfect fabric combinations!! And congrats on being a blog ‘owner’ 🙂
Thank you sooooo much Mie!! I can’t believe that you read my post, am I awake?? Did two of my favorite bloggers ever just commented on my blog?!! You are much too kind, I must say!!
Congratulations on your new blog Ines – it looks lovely! As does your jumpsuit – looking forward to seeing what other versions you will make from this pattern 🙂
